Terrorized on the Suet block:)

If you love an image (whether it's yours or someone else's) and want to make sure others get a chance to see it, you can “feature” it by choosing the “Spotlight” button.

When an image is Spotlighted, it receives enhanced visibility in premium spots throughout the site. Spotlighted images are rotated through these higher-visibility positions to ensure the best opportunity for the images to be seen by JPG users.

If you see a great photo that would make a perfect entry for one of our
Shoot Out photo contests but it was uploaded by another user, now you can
enter that photo in the contest and, if it wins, you get to share in the
contest winnings.

Like a photo editor, if you've got an eye for great work,
find it and submit it to a contest. If it wins, since you staked the entry
fee, you'll take home part of the prize (the rest, of course, goes to the member
who shot the image).

Terror shall make him afraid on every side and shall drive him to his feet...Job 18: 11

Oh how he tried like everything
To make his opponent terrorized....
The nuthatch spread his wings
Opening them bigger sized....
Flaring them side to side.
Scaring the Downy with shock
Wouldn't get him off the suet block!

Poetry by me AJP

The Downy woodpecker got intimidated by the white breasted nuthatch today who wasn't successful in trying to frighten his opponent off the suet block... The Downy just gave him a dirty look. .It is interesting to see how nature handles the bullies. It was admirable how the Downy held his position without fighting. The impatient Nuthatch did return later and got his share of the suet block too..

I shot this through the window under very bright lighting conditions and had problems with reflective glare on the glass..so softened the edges with a special effects filter in photo shop....I wished the lighting could have been better but had to go with what I had to get the picture...
